One of the greatest concerts I have ever seen in my life was their Empire tour. They played the entire Empire album, some classics from their older albums, and then played the ENTIRE album "Operation Mindcrime" non-stop. The entire concert was over three hours and Geoff Tate's voice was as powerful in this (the last song) as it was when they opened. The man is a vocal legend.

Geoff Tate will always be one of the greatest metal singers of all time in my book. Chris DeGarmo just killed it on "Operation: Mindcrime" one of the greatest albums of all time. Other great tracks to check out are "Queen of the Reich", "Take Hold of the Flame", "The Lady Wore Black", the entire "Operation: Mindcrime" concept album, and the only cover I can think of they did was from Dalbello "Gonna Get Close To You" which is a slower mid-tempo song.

The “original” Queensryche was AMAZING!!! They have an entire album dedicated to each band members favorite cover songs, Its called “Take Cover”. But you should check out Queensryche’s cover of; •Scarborough fair, By Simon and Garfunkel. •Welcome to the machine, By Pink Floyd In the 90’s this was my band. They were truly the background music to my life back then. But just like everything else, nothing good ever lasts.

They did an all covers album in 2007 called "Take Cover". Songs include 1)Bullet The Blue Sky (U2), 2)For The Love Of Money (O'Jays), 3)Welcome To The Machine (Pink Floyd) & 4)Odissea (Italian opera song). The rest weren't that great. They did do a BRILLIANT cover of '60s folk singers' Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel called 5)Scarborough Fair back in 1990. Overall, they weren't big on covers. 6)ROADS TO MADNESS is the Queensryche song to check out. It's haunting, epic & deep. The studio album version with lyrics is the best version to hear. It might give you chills

By watching your reaction I guess there's no need to recommending more Queensryche Videos Videos on your Channel. For some reasons... ^^ But if I had wish, so I would like to vote for : Queensryche's Take Hold of the Flame (from 1984 LIVE in Tokyo!) Queensryche - Anybody Listening? Queensryche- Silent Lucidity (even if you had a very bad Day or feeling sad this day) Queensryche-I Remember Now from MTV Unplugged!! And last but not least: Queensryche-Operation LIVECRIME! (the entire DVD. So, have a great day. Best wishes to you and your family. greetz.

I recommend the entire Operation: Mindcrime album from start to finish as this is actually the very last song of an hour long concept album which tells the story of Nikki an Mary who gets caught up in a very dangerous underground movement bent on power, revolution and so much more. The album deals with corrupt government, organized religion, assassination and murder, drugs, prostitution and even mind control. For many years the band denied attempts to turn it in to a major motion picture but the story is right out of a Hollywood script. Think about doing a couple songs at a time and make sure to follow along with the lyrics. I think it would be great to have you try and tell us what you think is happening in the story while listening along.
@superman-rp5fu2 жыл бұрын
There's a reason this song can be done on its own....... but after listening to the concept album from start to "Eye's of a Stranger", it completes the circle and takes the song to that next level! This is (IMO of course) right next to the master level of concept albums by Pink Floyd............. "The Wall"! Geoff Tate is the Steve Perry of Heavy Metal!:)

I'm way late to the game on reacting to your reaction. You've likely listened to the whole Mindcrime album by now. And there's their album Empire. Their albums are rock operas and tell a story. Mindcrime was about what was going on in the 80s . . . a blend of the political battle between the Soviets and US, but also the deeper criminal and political crime inside a city and within religion. And that all applies to what's going on today. I still have the live CD and VHS tape of their Madison Wisconsin Mindcrime concert and it's a classic. Watch that show . . . . . as I said it's a rock opera.
